Viscosity?  And is there a (more expensive) full synthetic version?  Or is organic the better choice here?

If you mix it with clarified butter, you'll get a much improved exhaust note!

I found that peanut oil should never be used when riding near a circus, however.  You may not be prepared for what follows you home.

RedLine oils specific for each of the 3 holes, I am running this since I got to the 1000 mile mark. I have no complaints and it seems to be available here at alot of places. It is a little harder to find Ams Oils here at a retail store level so u have to plan your oil changes a day or two sooner then I seem to do... I ran Amsoil in a couple of bikes and liked it as well. Of course I could stock it but I am happy with what I am running:

Red Line Synthetic 20W-50    Engine
Red Line Shock Proof 75-140  Transmission
Red Line  Primary Chain         Primary
   Case Oil

Glad a few turned this into a more interesting thread.  Its great having all the new people just seems too many aren't using the search function.  Where's the thread police when ya need em.  Must be polishing those chrome hinges so they look good on the "fire" place.

All oil threads should be "stickied" for easy reference. :idea:  Or, better yet, we could have a completely separate oil board, which would accomplish the same thing :idea2:

Naitram did some maintenance to the site last night, but I think it was fans he removed, not the umpteen million oil threads.  Search 'em out, peeps! :2vrolijk_21:

That's a bad idea Brian.  If all the oil threads got bundled together half the site would be in one long thread.  Maybe if just the redundant oil threads got bundled together?  No, it'd still be 49.9998%.  Never mind....


I got it!  First we have to take up a collection.  A collection for postal tacos.  After the fund is properly vested then everyone who starts a redundant oil thread gets two tacos in the mail!  

Only one taco if they tried using the search tool first though.

Wait a second.....  this idea sounds vaguely familiar.... hmmmmmm :-* ?

I think I'll start another oil thread, and see what types of Mexican Food show up in the mail!   :drink:

Anyone know how to make my exhaust smell like a Hoyo de Monterey Excalibur #1 Maduro???

Get 3 of them, put one in each muffler, and send one to me.  ;D
